Sot evening is gris charnel extrait. I prefer the edp but this is still great.

Granado Fervo Intenso. Different take on Agnel's Share, same perfumer. It's really good - finally Granado scent I appreciate. It's very easy to make your mind up on brand after trying few perfumes but have a look at the size of Byrdo collection for example - I may have 4 I like that's small fraction of their collection.

Yes I’ve done that with the Granada brand. Think I’ve had a couple in beauty drop and I associate it with soap smells. Your one sounds nice https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Granado/Fervo-Intenso-92930.html

We’re doing something Christmas related today so going to go for the Sana Jardin Sandalwood Temple. The Bastide Ambre Maquis had great longevity yesterday despite being an EDT, lasted until late afternoon - given I spray before 8am!

Me too, I did not expect to find anything from Granado that I like, and I like a lot (initial sniff, it may change!)

I am hoping to get few hours by myself as I need to buy few things in town. I can see Brown Thomas are selling ex Nihilo and I wonder if it's online only (which they sometimes do). I may pop over.

I went with that one yesterday too.

I haven't been that impressed with Granado, and am suprised that HN would sell it as it seems more a mid range house than premium. Fervo was the best of the bunch for me although I do prefer angel's share.

Tried Vilhelm room service today and I can see why it's called room service, smells like Beryl's been going round with the pledge whilst you're down in the hotel restaurant having breakfast. very lemony but in a cleaning product way. Not for me.

SoTD is Ellis Brooklyn vanilla milk. Its very sweet and gourmand, reminds me of afternoon delight. prefer it to the vanilla salt which was in the recent festive cracker.

I agree that Vanilla milk is much better than Salt,a tad bit disappointed. Didn't even get any vanilla accord.

Call me cynical but I'm beginning to think that some of these kits and crackers are for offloading duds!

🤣🤣
Now I can smell pledge. 🤣

Witchy Woo today. I’m sorting through the Christmas decorations this afternoon and it feels appropriate

Loving the idea from a PP of putting all the tiny samples in a pot and doing 'fragrance roulette' - I may try that as I have quite a few lying around from discovery kits and it's a good way to try new things.

Nest madagascar vanilla perfume oil. I have a teeny tiny rollerball of this, not sure if I have the bigger size I used to have. Used to really like this but it’s not hitting the spot this time. It’s quite generic. Vanilla and coconut.

Rediscovering liberty 1875 again, so glad I persisted with this as I was on the fence initially. Its perfect for this weather with the smokey, tobacco effect. Definitely a seasonal one.

That’s me. Ones I don’t like get used as room/bedlinen sprays pretty much immediately. I’ve also sent ones still on their cards with clothes I’ve sold on Vinted recently. I have way too many

SOTE is byredo animalique from the grand discovery set. Like this one a lot although the name is very confusing, you'd be expecting something oud-y or leathery but it's not at all, it's a very powdery, sweet scent.

I found eleventh hour byredo hand cream while clearing my skincare & makeup ahead of December. I like the scent of it I think, but so not handcream scent 🥴.

BORNTOSTANDOUT Black Mango

Sundazed from Byredo GD kit. Now this one smells exactly like a freshly peeled tangerine, almost a bit too photorealistic and probably fine for a summer's day but not at this time of year. Thought @MiaN may be familiar with this one given that it's Byredo and Citrussy.

Have gone through about half the GD kit now and it's a proper mixed bag. I love around a third, so-so around a third and not a fan of the rest.

New good discoveries for me are animalique and slow dance. Also inflorescence.

Still got a few to work my way through.

I liked sundazed but not enough to want a bottle. Its very distinctive smell to my nose after the citrus opening, it has cotton candy note - happy scent. I just wish it stayed citrusy for longer

And now we shop! First order for me today (will probably have few more)

Phlur Mr Smith so simple, but I fancied small bottle as it reminds me of growing up - my mam used to have green apple deo

Acqua Di Parma Buongiorno Eau De Parfum - 50ml
Maison Margiela Never Ending Summer Eau de Toilette - 30ml
Ouai - Melrose Place Eau De Parfum - 50ml (cheapy, it doesn't last but ok for the price).

This imo is great time to buy Byredo if you have any on your wishlist.

I dont need any more for myself but the cult beauty fragrance stockings are down now to £18 with code, they are practically giving them away, so ive got some more to give the individual perfumes as gifts to friends and colleagues. They've had to put up with weird and wonderful whiffs all year! Works out at less than £5 per perfume.

ADP Luce di Rosa today from my mystery jar of minis. It’s ok, I’m finding it on the powdery side which I don’t enjoy.

I may buy another CB fragrance stocking as I have a £5 voucher, seems foolish not to!

Rainbows, you and me are way past needing more perfume 😂

For anyone still thinking about the Space NK fragrance, code CYBER2025 is taking 10% off so down to £122.40
